The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3443
The stronger Charlie was, the more determined and firm he was in his judgment that Charlie had Ten Thousand Armies to back him up, and that was the reason why Charlie dared to be so arrogant. The more it was so, the more he was afraid that Charlie would really get angry. Otherwise, if Charlie were to really ask Ten Thousand Armies to deal with him, he would not be able to stand up to it at all.So, he hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, it was my attitude that was problematic just now. I apologize to you. I also hope that you will be magnanimous and that you will not hold it against me…”Olivia did not expect that her father would give in to Charlie, and she blurted out, “Dad! How could you apologize to him?!”Richard reprimanded her nonchalantly, “Shut up!”Olivia did not expect her father’s attitude to change so quickly. She was just about to ask what was going on when Aman, who was next to Richard, had already begun slapping himself on his left and right cheeks. Charlie really scared

At this moment, Richard had already regarded Charlie as the God of Plague because of his own thoughts in his inner brain.Right now, he only wanted to stabilize the current situation and avoid having any new conflicts with Charlie. So, he secretly gave Olivia a warning look before he spoke up and asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, shall we officially begin, then?”Charlie nodded slightly without speaking.Richard heaved a sigh of relief. It was only then that he hurriedly announced that this pre-wedding banquet for family and friends had officially begun.During the dinner, Richard put down his previous so-called royal stature, and he frequently toasted Charlie, and his expression and speech were extremely respectful.Olivia really did not understand what was going on and so, she came up with an excuse to call her father aside as she asked him in a low voice, “Dad, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you being so humble in front of Charlie?”Richard warned, “I’m afraid that the Wade fa

In the blink of an eye, five people had raised their hands.Walliot deliberately did not raise his hand immediately but instead, he waited until these people had eagerly come forward before saying, “Count me in too, then.”After he was done speaking, he looked at Charlie, and just as he was wondering what he should say to trick Charlie into playing the game, Charlie then took the initiative to raise his hand and said, “I also like to play Texas Hold’em Poker. Count me in.”Walliot was so excited that he almost cheered out loud.‘I was just trying to find an entry point to invite Charlie to join in this ruse as naturally as I possibly could, but I really did not expect Charlie to jump into it on his own.’‘Perfect!’After that, Walliot pretended to be polite as he said, “Mr. Wade, I really did not expect that you would like to play Texas Hold’em Poker too. In that case, we should play two rounds together for entertainment purposes, then.”Charlie also had a friendly expression on

Since the poker game had been brought up at the very last minute and the person who had suggested playing the card game had voluntarily given up his direct participation in the game, even volunteering to be the croupier, aside from Charlie and Olivia, the several other participants did not think about the aspect of cheating at all. Moreover, since the venue was the Northern European royal family’s own poker room and the playing cards were a brand-new and unopened product from the poker room’s inventory, no one had any doubts at all.In truth, there were actually no problems with the playing cards at all. The real problem was with the croupier.He was originally an expert in gambling, and he had made quite a fortune by gambling. Even if he were to play cards with professionals, he could cheat unnoticed, let alone when he was facing a group of amateur players.This person had very fast hands, very good memory, and excellent finger dexterity. It could be comparable to a close-range m

Charlie did not pay any attention to what cards he was actually dealt with, but as soon as the card came to him, he would immediately put a one-million-euro chip in. After a few rounds, Charlie then threw in four-million-euro chips, but it actually represented seventy million euros in total. The others were unable to adapt to the large bet for a while and so, they simply folded and watched the game.Charlie and Walliot were the only ones left at the table. Immediately afterward, the croupier spoke up and said, “Please show your cards!” Charlie flipped his bottom card over immediately, and his cards only consisted of a pair and three other miscellaneous cards. This was considered a very small hand in Texas Hold’em Poker. As for Walliot, he had a good hand in the first game. He had four Jacks and a miscellaneous card, which was a much bigger hand compared to Charlie. The croupier immediately announced, “Mr. Walliot wins this round.”Walliot was a little excited as he gathered
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3448
When Walliot saw that Charlie was a little angry, he was immediately nervous, and he hurriedly explained, “Mr. Wade, don’t get me wrong. I did not mean that…”As he spoke, Walliot then said, “I thought that our rules were still the same set of rules and that we would settle and pay up as soon as we lost one hundred million euros. But since you have already said so, I will not continue talking nonsense anymore. We will just settle and pay up when we lose one billion euros then, okay? If we do not lose up to one billion euros at the end of the game, we will just settle and pay up according to the amount that we have lost, then. What do you think?”Charlie nodded with satisfaction and smiled as he said, “That’s right! This is how a man should fucking talk! Otherwise, I would have thought that you were the kind of pathetic and poor person who has never seen money before and cannot wait to put the money in your pocket as soon as you’ve won just a little money.”As he spoke of this, Charl

Charlie played steadily, and he put in another five million chips, leaving only two million chips on hand.Walliot wanted to force Charlie to hurry up and pay out a sum of money first and so, he immediately threw in ten million chips and spoke up, “Mr. Wade, I’ll bet one hundred million euros. You seem to be running out of chips already.”Charlie shrugged, and he threw his bunch of miscellaneous cards aside directly as he said, “I fold.”There was an uproar in the crowd. “He’s folding just like that?”“He has already bet one or two hundred million euros, but he is folding just like that?! Does this guy know how to play or not?”“If I would have known that he’s so stupid, I would have just played against him just now! I wouldn’t have let Walliot take all the money, then!” Walliot was about to laugh out happily at this moment, and he almost could not control his emotions anymore. So, after calming himself down for a long time, he finally said, “Mr. Wade, you don’t have any more
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3450
The game that followed immediately had a new meaning now.When the cards were dealt, Charlie quickly received three Aces, two of which were on the bright side.As for Walliot, his cards were even more impressive. His cards were 10, J, Q, K, and they were all spades. When Walliot saw these cards, he instantly knew in his heart that the croupier should be planning to give him a flush while he gave Charlie four Aces.The biggest card in Texas Hold’em poker was the straight flush which would kill all other card combinations.Charlie had already exposed two of his best cards which were two Aces at this point, and the best combination of cards that he could possibly obtain would also be just four Aces.Even if Charlie had four Aces, it would be impossible for him to win a straight flush. Therefore, Walliot had no doubt that Charlie would lose this game and that he would win. However, it seemed as though Charlie did not believe in evil, and after a few rounds of betting, Charlie be

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
